Thanks to @Callum Linington for his answer. Just Try to make it little bit clear for beginners like me. Here is steps to get a list of users with their roles.

1- Create a view model called "UsersWithRoles" with some properties as shown below :

2- Create a controller called "RolesController", and then add following piece of code in it.

        public ActionResult Index()
    {
        using (var context = new ApplicationDbContext())
        {
            var sql = @"
            SELECT AspNetUsers.UserName, AspNetRoles.Name As Role
            FROM AspNetUsers 
            LEFT JOIN AspNetUserRoles ON  AspNetUserRoles.UserId = AspNetUsers.Id 
            LEFT JOIN AspNetRoles ON AspNetRoles.Id = AspNetUserRoles.RoleId";
            //WHERE AspNetUsers.Id = @Id";
            //var idParam = new SqlParameter("Id", theUserId);

            var result = context.Database.SqlQuery(sql).ToList();
            return View(result);
        }

    }

and here is what the RolesController should look like :

3- Add Index page to Roles folder, and add the following code in it.

@model IEnumerable

    
Users
    
        @foreach (var user in Model)
        {
            
        }
    

        
User Name
        
Role

                
@user.UserName
                
@user.Role
            

Here is the result

Thanks.
